Fire during start on ground
CRANKING: CONTINUE. To get a start and pull flames and accumulated fuel in to the engine
If engine starts:
Power: 1700 RPM for a few minutes
Engine: Shutdown and inspect for damage
Pg 3-5
Engine fire on the ground (failure to start).
THROTTLE: FULL OPEN MIXTURE: IDLE CUTOFF CRANKING: CONTINUE Fire extinguisher: Obtain Fire damage: Inspect
Pg 3-6
Engine fire in flight
MIXTURE: IDLE CUTOFF
FUEL SELECTOR VALVE: OFF
MASTER SW: OFF
CABIN HEAT AND AIR: OFF (except overhead vents)
AIRSPEED: 100 KIAS (if fire not extinguished, increase glide speed to find an airspeed to provide incombustible mixture)
Forced landing: Execute
Electrical fire in flight
MASTER SW: OFF
AVIONICS SW: OFF
ALL OTHER SWITCHES (EXCEPT IGNITION SW): OFF
VENTS/ CABIN AIR/ HEAT: CLOSED
FIRE EXTINGUISHER: ACTIVATE
If fire is out and electrical power is necessary for continuance of flight:
Master switch: On
Circuit breakers: Check for faulty circuit, do not reset
Radio switches: Off
Avionics power switch: On
Radio/ electrical switches: On one at a time with a short delay to localize faulty circuit
Vents/ cabin air/ heat: Open when it is ascertained that the fire is completely out
Pg 3-6
Cabin fire
MASTER SWITCH: OFF
VENTS/ CABIN AIR/ HEAT: CLOSED
FIRE EXTINGUISHER: ACTIVATE
Land as soon as possible
Pg 3-7
Wing fire
LANDING/ TAXI LIGHT SWITCHES: Off
PITOT HEAT SWITCH: OFF
NAVIGATION LIGHTS SWITCHES: OFF
STROBE LIGHT SWITCH: OFF
Note: Perform side slip to keep flames away from fuel and cabin, land as soon as possible using flaps only as required for final approach and touchdown.
Inadvertent icing encounter
PITOT HEAT SWITCH: ON
TURN BACK OR CHANGE ALTITUDE to find a temperature less favorable for icing
PULL CABIN HEAT CONTROL FULL OUT AND OPEN DEFROSTER OUTLETS to get maximum windshield defrost airflow
Open throttle to increase RPM and decrease ice buildup
Watch for signs of carburetor filter icing and apply carb HEAT as required
Plan a landing at the nearest airport, with extremely rapid ice buildup plan for an “off airport” landing
With ice build up of 1/4” or more on the wings leading edge, be prepared for significantly higher stall speed
Leave wing flaps retracted. With severe ice build up on the tail, flap extension causes airflow changes which may lead to loss of elevator effectiveness
Open window to scrape ice as required for visibility during landing
Preform landing slip as required for improved visibility
Use airspeed between 65-75 KIAS
Perform landing in level attitude
Pg 3-7
Static source blockage
STATIC PRESSURE ALTERNATE SOURCE VALVE: PULL ON
ALTERNATE static source: Break glass on VSI
Airspeed: Consult calibration chart in CH 5
Pg 3-8
Landing with flat main tire
Approach:
Touchdown: Good tire first, hold airplane off flat tire as long as possible
Pg 3-8
Ammeter shows excessive rate of charge (FULL scale deflection)
Alternator: Off
Alternator circuit breaker: Pull
Nonessential electrical equipment: Off
Flight: Terminate as soon as practical
Pg 3-9
Low voltage light illuminates in flight (ammeter shows discharge)
Note: Low voltage light may illuminate during low RPM such as taxi, but extinguishes at higher RPM
Avionics power switch: Off Alternator CB: Check in Master switch: Off (both sides) Master switch: On Low voltage light: Check off Avionics power switch: On If low voltage light illuminates again: Alternator switch: Off Nonessential radio and electrical equipment: Off Flight: Terminate as soon as practicable
Pg 3-9
Spins
THROTTLE: IDLE
AILERONS: NEUTRAL
RUDDER: APPLY AND HOLD FULL RUDDER OPPOSITE THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION
JUST AFTER THE RUDDER REACHES THE STOP, BRISKLY MOVE THE CONTROL WHEEL FORWARD FAR ENOUGH TO BREAK THE STALL
HOLD THESE CONTROL INPUTS UNTIL ROTATION STOPS
AS ROTATION STOPS, NEUTRALIZE RUDDER AND MAKE A SMOOTH RECOVERY FROM THE RESULTING DIVE
Pg 3-15
What is an indication of spark plug fouling and what can be done to correct it?
Roughness of the engine verified by loss of RPM by switching from both to L or R
Lean engine to recommended setting for cruise conditions for a few minutes
If roughness does not clear up, determine if a richer setting clears up the roughness, if not proceed to the nearest airport with ignition switch on both, unless extreme roughness is counteracted by switching to L or R
Pg 3-16
What is the typical cause of sudden engine roughness?
Magneto failure
Switching from both to L or R will identify the faulty magneto
Adjust engine setting to get best RPM while on both, or divert to nearest airfield to affect repairs
Pg 3-16
Low oil pressure diagnosis
Low oil pressure not accompanied by high oil temperature may be and result of an indicator malfunction
Loss of oil pressure accompanied by high oil temperature should be treated as a land as soon as possible. Reduce engine power to minimum required and execute a forced landing expecting eminent engine failure
Pg 3-16
